A cobalt Qube2 is based on mips, not fast but it usses low power
and can move a good amount of data.
I believe Eric had some fibre channel arrays left to connect to the qube.
Madness. Qube2 with 250Mhz mips proc and 2TB xfs disk storage connected to
it. <grin> I want it.
However my powersupply is still broken and I need to get it replaced
before I can try and get the thing booting and crashing again.
